Help with Globed server and Cloudflare tunnel | Globed Community | Page 1

Hello everyone!

So, I try to host a Globed server for my community. I bought my own domain. https://sqdgd.ca and created some subdomains with Cloudflare. I want to create one, globed.sqdgd.ca, that will be the Globed server. I've setup on my home server Globed, and it works well with cloudflare tunnel... for me. My friend all get the connection timed out, failed to connect after 5 seconds. Is it a problem of my own or theirs?

Thanks!

your server address is 192.168.2.100 in the json

#

that is a local network address, other users will not be able to connect to that

#

you have to put the public ip of your server there and ensure port 4202 is forwarded on both tcp and udp

How can I know the public ip address if it's a cloudflare tunnel? Do I put mine?

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:16 PM

#

you cannot put udp through a cf tunnel

#

if you are hosting this on your own pc then you have to do port forwarding on your router and use your home network's public ip

Impossible, the server is on my enterprise network. I also tried playit.gg but it's pretty slow

#

But if you say that it's a UDP tunnel I need, i can configure this...

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:21 PM

#

i dont believe you can do that

#

the only other option i know is a vpn

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:27 PM

#

stuck matrix the only other option i know is a vpn

So, I tried again playit.gg and... well...

#

#

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:27 PM

#

uhh okay that certainly should not happen

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:28 PM

#

Always when I start playit.gg, it does that

#

These are the infos I have

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:33 PM

#

vernal ingot These are the infos I have

invalid or missing marker means most likely client tried sending an http request to the game server (which expects plain tcp)

#

so incorrect address/port somewhere

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:33 PM

#

Seems like a valid reason

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:34 PM

#

when you press "Add server" you should input the URL that would resolve to the central server

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:34 PM

#

Port 4201 or 4202?

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:34 PM

#

4201 in your case

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:34 PM

#

Aight, so maximum-all.gl.at.ply.gg:48246

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

stuck matrix 4201 in your case

Seems not good at all

(If you want the log)

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

well you are using direct connection

#

which is wrong

#

you should use the "Add new" button

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

Ok cool. But this is a weird feature that Direct Connection crash everything 😂

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:36 PM

#

i will fix if i can reproduce yeah

#

but this is because it's used differently

#

direct connection is when you don't have a central server, you are supposed to use ip and port of the game server there

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:36 PM

#

stuck matrix but this is because it's used differently

Can you try to connect to maximum-all.gl.at.ply.gg:48246 ?

#

http://maximum-all.gl.at.ply.gg:48246

HTTP not secure (port 80) right?

#

It seems to works in the browser

#

Not here tho. It must be a problem of my part.

#

Yep, it is a problem of my part I think

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:38 PM

#

vernal ingot Can you try to connect to maximum-all.gl.at.ply.gg:48246 ?

not atm

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:39 PM

#

vernal ingot Yep, it is a problem of my part I think

uhh hm

#

means game server failed to make a request to the central server

#

something broke between them

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:40 PM

#

Oh damn, I'll try to catch the error then

#

Ok seems good!

#

I'll add my own domain now, for entering globed.sqdgd.ca

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:42 PM

#

alright cool

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:42 PM

#

Thanks!

👌

stuck matrix np

Another question, does that means I made something wrong in my config file?

#

📎 central-conf.json

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:51 PM

#

i dont know to be honest

#

could run the game server with GLOBED_GS_LOG_LEVEL=trace environment variable

#

it'll print during startup the amount of roles

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:53 PM

#

gamemoderun WINEDLLOVERRIDES="xinput1_4=n,b" GLOBED_GS_LOG_LEVEL=trace %command%

Like this?

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:53 PM

#

the server

#

not the client

#

mb

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:53 PM

#

Oh, alright

#

Central or game?

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:53 PM

#

game server

#

i think it should print the roles at least but i'm not sure

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:54 PM

#

ah yeah

#

huh

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:55 PM

#

So... I can't create custom roles?

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 5:55 PM

#

you should be able to, i dont know why its not working

#

oh

#

im guessing you had an "admin" role beforehand and you removed it

#

but you didn't remove it from yourself

#

so that role id is still in the list, and it causes troubles

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 5:56 PM

#

That's a good guess! I'll try to add a admin role.

#

(Not sure how to write guess, guest?)

#

I'll try now

#

Worked like a charm!

#

#

Now there is only one problem that remains (and then, I'll let you alone, promise 😂 )

#

So, I created an entry on my DNS provider, and I have a pretty weird error when I try to connect. (It still works with the playit.gg address)

#

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:08 PM

vernal ingot

we dont support this syntax

#

but also, do you have a reverse proxy set up?

#

http://globed.sqdgd.ca will go to port 80

#

unless theres nginx or something else to redirect, the server wont get the request

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:12 PM

#

stuck matrix but also, do you have a reverse proxy set up?

Nop, it's just plain redirection

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:19 PM

#

well i mean anything that would redirect it

#

http://globed.sqdgd.ca/ right now just returns a 404

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:19 PM

#

I see

#

So, it is an error from my cloudflare config

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:22 PM

#

not really

#

i don't think cloudflare can redirect to a specific port

#

easiest solution is just put the port at the end

#

like connect to http://globed.sqdgd.ca:4201 or something

#

more proper solution is to have a simple nginx proxy on the port 80 of your server that redirects all requests to port 4201

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:23 PM

#

Well, I did it with a Minecraft server

#

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:23 PM

#

yeah, because minecraft supports SRV queries

#

globed does not

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:24 PM

#

Ohh, I see

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:24 PM

#

i was planning to add it at some point but haven't done it

#

because it's very niche and i didn't need it myself

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:24 PM

#

Yeah I see

#

So I should create a simple A record?

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:25 PM

#

again you cannot specify the port in A records

#

only the IP

#

the request will always go to port 80 in case of http

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:25 PM

#

I know. https://globed.sqdgd.ca:48246/ then

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:26 PM

#

yeah

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:28 PM

#

Oohh progress?

#

#

(My bad, it's french)

#

It works! Sorry, it's because of HTTPS://

stuck matrix Apr 19, 2025, 6:30 PM

#

uhh

#

yeah right

vernal ingot Apr 19, 2025, 6:31 PM

#

My network admin experience isn't proud of me 😂

#

Alright, no more question! Thanks a lot!

#

I'll port forward it when I'll get access to my enterprise network router.

#

So it will be faster than playit.gg

#

👍
